Making a happy match between orbital-free density functional theory and information energy density
In the field of computational chemistry within density functional theory (DFT), the orbital-free DFT (OF-DFT) can be considered as a promising approach for simulating large systems. In OF-DFT, only a single relation, the Euler equation, has to be solved independently from the number of electrons. In this work, the Euler equation of OF-DFT is rewritten through a new partition scheme for energy density functional. Next, based on information theory, we reformulate the resulting equation in terms of Onicescu information energy density. Plus, the new forms of Euler equation based on Shannon entropy and Fisher information are presented. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
